I use and used yogurt a lot with my crew. I had two kittens, age 4 weeks exposed to a cat with feline leukemia. The FeLV cat groomed them and shared dishes with them. The kittens never developed FeLV. I am NOT saying the yogurt was a factor. It most likely was genetics, luck or God that saved my kittens. However, I know from reading a lot on human nutrition that the immune system begins in the gut. I do think that having a good bioflora in the gut is not a bad thing.
Will it save your cat? I doubt it. Will it help? I don't know. Will it hurt? No. and it doesn't cost much. Does it affect the immune system favorably? Most likely. --- On Tue, 4/28/09, Emily Hunter <emilyofw...@aol.com> wrote: From: Emily Hunter <emilyofw...@aol.com> Subject: [Felvtalk] Probiotics? To: "Felv Talk List" <felvtalk@felineleukemia.org> Date: Tuesday, April 28, 2009, 1:51 PM I was looking up probiotics for a couple of my negatives who have chronic GI problems and read on the Winn Foundation blog that they may also be beneficial for the immune system in general. Has anyone had good results using these? I think I remember someone mentioning Fortiflora on here, any recs on this or other ones? Tofu is not having any problems, but if I put the others on this I am tempted to do so with her as well. It sounds like it couldn't hurt. -Emily Sent from my iPhone _______________________________________________ Felvtalk mailing list Felvtalk@felineleukemia.org http://felineleukemia.org/mailman/listinfo/felvtalk_felineleukemia.org _______________________________________________ Felvtalk mailing list Felvtalk@felineleukemia.org http://felineleukemia.org/mailman/listinfo/felvtalk_felineleukemia.org
